You took a picture of yourself in the mirror with a wide angle lens.

Now that is what I thought it might look like... Not quite!! Ok... Here it is!!

To refresh all's memory, here is the posted photo...

I was calibrating a new tip for our Coordinate Measuring Machine. To do so, we make 5 touches on a 7/8" diameter sphere.
The sphere is in the upper right... very precise!

As I was making the touches, I noticed my reflection in the small sphere!!! Thought, Eureka, a photo op..
Went to my office, grabbed my camera and took the picture. You can see the reflection as I did below!

I decided to crop it in close and make a little game out of it... Hope that people enjoyed and did not think it was too much of a waste, by several comments seemed some enjoyed it. I thank those that played along.

Pat,

Very clever.

I like the "guess what it is" type shots. It makes me think. It's just fun to see how creative people can be with their photos without a lot of post processing.

at first I thought it was the bulb of a thermometer until I saw the brazing, so I am still scratching my head Pat

Edit, just saw the picture 2 above this, so???? that's what I get for reading the last post first:confused:

I learned to drive in my parents 1963 Chevy BelAir. When I turned 16 I was so happy to get my first car. A 1968 Chevy SS396 new off the showroom floor. Wish I had it now it is worth 10 times what it cost new.
